I got a tip to ditch my garbage champion plugs for some NGKs. After doing it i was impressed, the car ran 100 times better. Who knew japanese plugs would run good in a chrysler? Does anyone else know any other little tricks like that for extra power?

These pictures are from almost 2 years ago when the car still sported a 318.

I think this is right after i swapped out the interior. It was previously blue, and mostly destroyed. I figure the car sat for a while somewhere, because the old blue vinyal was extremely faded, except for spots where it looked like a book sat on the passanger seat, and where a pen had been stuck in the visor. Both these spots were dark blue.

Here is the sorry old 318. After i pulled it out, i discovered the timing chain had more than half an inch of play in it, with that and some of its other problems, it was a wonder it still ran.
